A timely reminder from the Australian Physiotherapy Association on burnout in physiotherapy.

The demands of clinical care, admin, and emotional load are not insignificant, and if we’re honest, many of us have felt it.

If we want a sustainable profession, we need to prioritise:
• Better support structures
• Realistic workloads
• Open conversations about mental wellbeing

Looking after ourselves is not optional — it’s essential to delivering good patient care.

Many people with fibromyalgia spend years feeling unheard or dismissed.

Understanding the condition is a crucial first step toward better management and improved quality of life.

If this post resonates with you, consider chatting to your physiotherapist about a tailored, evidence-based approach.

Manguzi Gijima is more than just a sports day! The Disability Engagement Workshop is held two days before the main sporting event. It is planned, organized and implemented by the local disability sector. Last year the day kicked off with a Disability Rights march! The Gijima Workshop provides a space for the local disability sector to discuss local disability issues with local, provincial and national stakeholders from government departments and civil society and explore potential solutions. The workshop highlights South Africa's policy-practice gap, but also brings together stakeholders from different sectors and develops local solutions to local problems. Advocacy starts here, with us!

With much thanks to ongoing support and engagement:
SANAC Civil Society Forum National Department of Health (South Africa) Department of Social Development
We also want to thank additional sponsors so far:

King Price Insurance Build it Thonga Trails as well as the Faith Foundation, Senekal Boerdery and Mntwana Russel Tembe
